Let’s delve into the uniqueness of each origin, their energies, and the history of this sacred wood.
The History of Palo Santo
Palo Santo, translating to “holy wood” in Spanish, has a rich heritage rooted in the cultures of South America. Indigenous communities, including the Inca, have used this aromatic wood for centuries in spiritual ceremonies and healing practices. Harvested sustainably from the fallen branches and trees of the Bursera graveolens tree, Palo Santo is known for its cleansing properties, its ability to raise vibrations, and its grounding aroma.
Traditionally, Palo Santo was burned to purify spaces, ward off negative energy, and invite blessings and abundance. Today, it continues to hold a revered place in rituals around the world, offering a bridge between ancient practices and modern intentions.
